The Other is an award-winning documentary filmed from 2017-2024, including the 7 October Hamas attack and during the subsequent war. The other focuses on Israeli and Palestinian peace-builders, anti-occupation activists, artists, academics, ex-fighters, bereaved parents and many more living the reality on the ground. Whether in non-violent co-resistance, peace-building, or shared community, we witness those who have only known each other through hate, bloodshed, inequality, and was, transcend beyond those narratives and belief systems.

They teach us that unlearning deep-seated conditioning is possible and that we can liberate ourselves from generational trauma, hatred and fear - no matter how ingrained and legitimate those fears are.

Among those featured are Ahmed Helou, a Gazan ex-Hamas member turned peace activist who has since lost 60 family members in Gaza.
